The bleaching doesn't necessarily occur as the temp rises, sometimes it occurs on the way back to cool. Depends on how fast/slow you "fix" the temperature issue.

Yes, my tank normally sits around 79 like yours but gets up to 82 during the day when the MH is on. Hit 85 3 days in a row last week but no sign of harm so far. I reeeealllly dont want to run a chiller if i can get away with it.
